What is Reverse Kimura All About? | Jiu-Jitsu Submission Answers

[@NinjaWarriorDude416]

I have been doing the reverse Kimura wrong... been gripping my wrist and people have been getting their elbow free. Now I do your grips and none can escape... also that long range is so nice. Obrigado!!! 🥋

[@guitarfreak80ftw]

I’m never seen anything like this before. Incredible stuff

[@JustT725]

I feel like understanding this system can really help me. I generally get my guard passed and I’m so tired of that feeling.

[@tommy2shoes339]

“...doesn’t look like it hurts, but it hurts a lot, a lot.” 😂😂😂😂😂😂 Love the vids as always!

[@mistermistermizzle9398]

He looks like George McFly, whom we all love btw.

[@Slamminbassplayer]

Helloooooo? McFly!?? Lorraine, you are my density. LOL. Good call. Great instructor.

[@mistermistermizzle9398]

"Now Biff, don't con me"

[@jdligg]

“...this is where all the purple belts want to play.” You right. I feel attacked, but you right.

[@lowlowseesee]

lol

[@streetwiseguitar5113]

FINALLY a Buratta plata entry that looks like I can MAYBE get!

[@weaselshitz2010]

I started doing this by accident. I am left handed and I kept screwing up straight Kimuras trying to translate it from right to left handed. I noticed that it was actually working for me. The last technique looks killer. I am balls deep into that !!!

[@sochin7777]

Once in a while you just see something and it immediately fits your own personal style and game. Thank you!

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Happy to hear that!

[@realapproved]

You do amazing Jiu Jitsu videos for sure but you should one on how to roll without messing up your hair. :)

[@christophervelez1561]

Sick I can’t wait to check this series out.

[@elioliver9656]

We learned this like 2 weeks ago I love it. My coach was telling us to use our punch hand to reach behind the thigh and you can add more tension that way as well

[@AEB-tb3om]

3 years late to this, but can you clarify?

[@cjk7965]

Sweet !!

[@johnhughes1395]

Always informative and easy to understand. From Australia 🇦🇺

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Thanks for watching all the way from Australia!!!

[@ChichKrav]

Roll call! I’m here too! 🇦🇺

[@jebstewart7295]

Excellent video! Came looking for specific details I was missing and found exactly what I needed! Thank you!

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Excellent. Glad this could help.

[@03toyotacorolla]

Great vid thanks guys!

[@adriansalas8424]

Always great stuff from you guy's!

[@buayakantor7738]

VOILAA!!! BEAUTIFUL 😎

[@obviousgiant4568]

That Barataplata set up is sick.

[@julianiran8781]

Well done. nicely said and demonstrated. my hat off for both of you. Thank you jentelmen.

[@mike-yp1uk]

It definitely looks like a winner. Im going to use this until i get it right.

[@curiouser1]

I love this channel. You have really good content.

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Thank you!

[@spudyaquilina3001]

Awesome thank you. Longer range would suit me with feet on hips as I'm short and can't get my legs round for closed guard

[@ProjectPurity]

"Stop it Biff! You'll break his arm!!!"

[@byronanderson6393]

Ah hell I'm going to buy it it looks killer

[@raphaelmoraczewski1106]

Nice work, thanks a lot guys.

[@Valetudos187]

This is Legit moves perfect explanation 👌

[@Genki1970]

Great stuff Drew! Congrats on the video series, I look forward to checking it out!

[@shobukan5555]

Great explanations

[@adilbekramadan2038]

Thank you 👏👍I'd never seen before that movies 🖒👍perfect 👍

[@njmike9784]

Excellent content as usual! Love BP set up🤙

[@DP-dd6hl]

That's a new one for me. in truth never considered that finish from the position gonna have to try it. many thanks

[@DieselCricket]

Always good stuff, thanks!

[@generalglaser9596]

Somehow like the Russian 2on1, but for the ground. Awesome!

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

It definitely shares properties of a Russian, but is pretty different in a few key ways.

[@uncledongtan71]

Thanks for amazing video ^^/

[@morgancaptain5842]

awesome!!!

[@amirkazemi2517]

Professor's knuckles - mann! he must be breaking boards.

[@jacobmoorman2720]

Incredibly helpful video as always, thank you!!

[@민경사랑]

와우..알지 못한다면 당할 수 밖에 없는 멋진 기술입니다!!!

[@TheGrimxcore]

Being a friend and student of Drew's I thought he was just trying to get more of my money, but turns the instructional is actual worth every dollar. I've been able to use it a lot of the technique since getting the extra study time with it. It is broken down super well and in easy bite size pieces.

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Absolutely. Drew is scientific with this stuff, and he really does break it down more technically than anyone I have seen tackle this technique.

[@olimkhujaanvarkhujaev7677]

good

[@sugoipapi2572]

This is some good shit.

[@diagonalelbow887]

i wonder is the triangle there as well once the arm is across. is it possible to bring the left leg across the shoulder to keep posture down?

[@dzuehoang487]

The guy at the bottom has more chances to attack . A better way if we had more skill to protect the guy on the top . Thank you . I like it.

[@QuakePhil]

Nice video! Check out Kit Dale's "great white grip" he has at least one video about it on youtube... somewhat similar concept

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Drew mentioned the Great White variation in his longer instructional and how it fits in as a variation.

[@brandonjones362]

Honestly the guy seems pretty smart ...Im jealous of his mental clarity ...and life position....😎

[@YesitisDex]

2:22 I like that🤓

[@kudlanok]

This is superb move, but I would be afraid about his second arm. Or is it that fast that he hasn’t chance to do anything?

[@braddavis7733]

RK gang

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

🙌🙌🙌

[@criostasi4080]

Wow. Super lesson! Never seen something similar. Do you think that it can be applied also in MMA or the risk of being punched from the free hand is to high? For what I see and what I have learned in MMA, if in bottom guard, first priority is get up as soon as possible, second one is to close the distance. Anyway the second option you showed seems good to me also vs strikes

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

I think it has mma application. You already see it a lot standing in modified Russian ties (although this isn’t a Russian). The interesting thing about the free hand in the ground position is that once the grip is established and the guy is stretched out it puts a lot of necessity for the free hand to post, making it difficult to get it off the ground. Hope that makes sense.

[@alwaystraining54]

It wouldn’t be a Bjj video without mentioning a “karate chop” somewhere

[@ronmiller3319]

Looks a lot like an elbow slicer (or knee slicer when done on the leg) from catch wrestling. Very painful.

[@jiujitsustudent604]

It’s not a slicer. Pure shoulder lock.

[@eschelar]

Baratoplata is shoulder attack, white belt legal? Or too risky due to similarity to bicep slicer?

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

It’s supposed to be legal but lots of refs will call it a bicep slicer. So it’s risky

[@eschelar]

@@KnightJiuJitsu Thanks. I had a skillful dodger try it on me twice the other day. On my injured shoulder. Turns out he was also a considerate dodger and gave me room to get up and stack him. Always good times on the mats. :)

[@justinreason2040]

Left foot pushing on hip?

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Yep

[@matheusgarcia2766]

No gi modified arm drag?

[@Aceinthehole1179]

Tried to find this to purchase & the link doesn’t work

[@override3377]

a humble question: is it possible to apply the baratoplata using the left leg (wich in the video is on the opponent hip) to squeeze the shoulder? i have many big guys in my gym and using only the arms doesn t work for me. As always great content Knight!

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Thanks for the comment. I’m not an expert in this position, but if I understand your question right, then yes, you can use your left leg to assist and it makes the emphasis on the bicep slicer more than the shoulder lock.

[@override3377]

@@KnightJiuJitsu thanks a lot. Keep up this amazing channel, Professor

[@heerPeeperkorn]

Hm. My buddy front rolls out of this. Any tips on how to prevent the escape?

[@markhill8150]

Honestly this is good but I find getting a cross wrist grip is extremely difficult. Guys will just yank it out because everyone knows that's a set up for alot of things.

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Drew addressed this pretty thoroughly in his seminar and goes into a lot of detail in his course too. I had the same problem for a long time, and encounter it rarely now.

[@guam58]

The yank is the important part of baiting to get that overbook over the elbow. You can also, catch what is called a snare (Neil Melanson), which is another way to get a reverse kimura or triangle. You have to be pretty aggressive with that crossgrip pull to bait that reverse kimura position. It is a solid position setup to many things. I use it quite a bit and is very easy to setup once you get the hang of it. I use it when breaking posture. I get a 2 on 1 on the elbow at the same time use legs to pull partner forward. This is probably the easiest way to catch the reverse kimura.

[@brandondelahoussaye8323]

i cant find this course anywhere. Can someone point me to a link please?

Jamal A. Yeah grow the beard back

[@samirmussa1]

Why not grab your shoulder while your at it and teach the inverted game to this

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

The main version of this doesn't benefit from grabbing the shoulder, but there is a position called the Great White that uses similar concepts with a shoulder grab, almost rear naked choke style grip, for different options.

[@arturoredondo5877]

with that Kimura he could have defeated to biff tannen

[@MrEvilchukky]

I tried it on my grandma and she died.

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

But it worked though, right?....

[@MrEvilchukky]

@@KnightJiuJitsu ....like a dream!!...Thank you!!!! She never taps to triangles or armbars.

[@gagworks]

Looks a lot like an arm drag into Russian tie to me...

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

The Russian is a different control configuration for different purposes and usually just standing. This, as well as the Russian tie, both fit into the family of double wrist locks, but this is different than a typical Russian tie though.

He looks like McFly
